This year we will continue to provide service to the Village we've served last year.
The programme will also be strongly linked to our curriculum and hopefully a meaningful IDU week to follow up with our learning and project.
We hope to build up a long term service project such as: build and set up a library / build more huts for students and teachers etc.
